Singer-songwriter Dez Duron is set to make his Broadway debut in the highly anticipated musical “Maybe Happy Ending.” The talented vocalist, who captivated fans on NBC’s The Voice, will join Darren Criss (Glee, American Buffalo, The Assassination of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story) and Helen J. Shen in the musical scheduled to premiere this October at the Belasco Theatre in New York City.
Hailing from Shreveport, Louisiana, Dez Duron’s journey from the choir in his parents’ church to the Broadway stage is a testament to his versatile talents and passion for music. Duron, who played quarterback at Yale University, left his pursuit of football to chase after his real passion of music where he has since excelled as a singer and actor.
“To make my Broadway debut in this incredibly beautiful show is beyond a dream come true! I can’t wait to tell this story,” Says Dez.
In addition to gearing up for his Broadway debut, Dez is set to release his first song. “Let’s Just Call It Love,” written by Dez, Nathan Gamble and Brittney Meyer, will release this Friday, May 17th. This soulful jazz ballad track, infused with Dez’s signature style, is expected to captivate audiences and further showcase his musical prowess.
“This song has meant so much to me since the day we wrote it,” says Dez. “I couldn’t be more proud of it being my first original song to release to the world.”
Dez Duron’s upcoming Broadway debut and single release mark significant milestones in his flourishing career.
